Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Opinions on these Reliance 0690 servo motors for BP conversion

I bought some of these motors a while back. I haven't got around to
getting them mounted and trying them out yet. I am also using the
pico-systems setup. My webpage has the specs for these motors that the
seller sent me. www.cncwright.com. I still need to chase down ballscrews
for my project...

Michael
